South Mexico, late February 2025 (2 Viewers)

Hi all,

I'm visiting a friend in Mexico in February (I'll be in the country 14 Feb-1 March) and would like to spend a fair amount of time birding with a guide. I haven't settled on a fixed location, but Oaxaca is looking appealing. I would struggle to afford the guide fee on my own, so if anyone is considering something in Mexico at this time and would like to discuss sharing costs, let me know!
 
Hey CraneFan,
I don't know if you've had any luck with finding anyone to go birding with but I wanted to put this out there in case you were still looking. I was birding in Mexico in December - Mexico City and Tulum area and I had terrific guides in both areas. You could reach out to them to see if you could tag along with someone already birding? I don't know if they'd do it but they were both friendly incredibly knowledgeable guides that might be able to point you in the right direction.
Mexico City - Rafael Calderon - WhatsApp - 525514955715
Tulum area but we traveled far outside on the tour - Steven Koevoet - WhatsApp - 529841653075

Good luck and happy birding!

Hi Cranefan,

This is a bit late in the day but I am also contemplating a Oaxaca trip, last week in Feb. or 1st week in March. I’m willing to share. Guide Eric Martinez doesn’t respond to my emails, and guide Roque Santiago is $350/day, too much to hire on my own. Have you made any progress?
